3632278 - Synchronization between Contract End Date and Effective Date of the Contract End Record

Upon extension of the Contract End Date to a later date, the system doesn't dynamically adjust the effective date of the record to reflect the new end of the contract. 

SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central: Seasonal Workers

1. Hire a fixed-term employee.
2. Set the Contract End Date in the Job Information portlet.
3. Extend the Contract End Date to a later date.
4. Observe that the effective date of the End of Contract record in the Job Information portlet is not updated.

This is expected behavior. There is no hard coded logic for the system to dynamically adjust the effective date of the record to reflect the new end of the contract upon extension of the contract end date.

Based on your business requirement, we encourage you to submit your idea in the customer influence page which is one of the best channels to have your idea considered and voted on by the community, and to track the interest of others in the community, please use the new SuccessFactors Influence portal.

SAP Customer Influence is a great program for customers and partners to share feedback/ideas that help enhance SAP solutions in production. It enables customers to submit ideas and to vote on them.

As a workaround, you can follow any of the below approaches: 

• Implement a business rule to issue a warning stating, "Please update the Effective Date of the record to align with the Contract End Date." OR
• Manually update the effective date of the record to match the new contract end date.
